Literacy rate, adult total (% of people ages 15 and above), 1979–2022. Bars, not a line: a line drawn across a year the source does not report would invent an observation a reader could not tell from a measured one.

The World Bank reports 4 of the 44 years between 1979 and 2022 for Guinea-Bissau. The missing 40 are drawn as gaps, because a gap is what they are.
